Tasting- Riesling


Name: Peter Mertes Platinum Riesling
Variety: Riesling, Magnum
Region: Rheinhessen
Country: Germany
Year: 2014
Price: Sale price $9.95, Regular price $18

Winery Review: Light-bodied slightly sweet white wine; medium pale slightly greenish yellow. Inviting fresh white peach aroma and flavors. Easy to drink and not complicated, but what's there is very pleasant, and flavors develop in the glass.

My Review: I liked this one right off the bat because of the fruity aromas I smelled of grapefruit, peach, and apricot. The bottle was also very appealing to the eyes, and very tall! This felt like a light wine you would drink casually with friends or when you're out at lunch. I also liked this very much because the after taste wasn't too sweet, and almost tangy. I ended up purchasing a bottle.
I sampled this wine without any food pairing.
